"[I]t is marvelously alert, adult, intelligent, handsome, well-acted, and serenely sad -- possibly the most beautiful film ever made by an 84-year-old, certainly one of the year's best pictures."Film Comment "The mood is polite, discreet, hushed, resolutely adult....Mr. Resnais's narrative techniques are similarly refined. The edits are as smooth as the fluid camerawork..."New York Times "The grand old filmmaker frames each scene like a fine painting." -- Grade: B+Entertainment Weekly 4 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t's the beautifully tuned ensemble acting that infuses this funny, sad treat with real humanist heft."Total Film "[An] elegant, highly formal play on the toings and froings of six characters....PRIVATE FEARS demonstrates once again Resnais' formal mastery."Sight and Sound66.19182
